Actually the title should read 5 things I learned from the second half of USA England, because I'm
and idiot and set up my vcr incorrectly. Anyways, onto the 5 things I learned about the USMNT from
Wednesday's friendly:
1) Bob Bradley needs to make quicker substitutions
If the first half played out anything like the second half, Bradley should've been able to see that
changes needed to be made at the half.
Bravo ESPN, we salute you for your dedication to covering the Euros on your family of networks and
only sloughing the first days matches to ESPN Classic. For that you deserve some credit.
However, our own national team is playing it's three toughest opponents in a row, ever, and for the
two "Sexier" matches, in terms of who neutrals (see: not psychotic about footie) would
rather/should see, many Americans (or maybe it's just me and my shit cable package) will be forced
to watch the game on tape delay, in Spanish.
It's that time again: time for me to tell our Yanks Abroad what they should do with their careers
and their lives, because I am the smartest football pundit/punter on earth. Without further
arrogance nor adieu:
As most of you informed readers know by now (we're never the first to break
news here at SGS) Fulham FC has an outside shot at playing some continental footie next season.
While this is certainly a newsworthy story, what makes it worthy of our brand of wit and sarcasm?
First off, the five yanks who make West London and Craven Cottage their home.
Unfortunately I have a bad case of writer's block. The urge to write hasn't gone away, it's just
that every time I sit down the few words that do trickle out of my fingertips sound lame or don't
go anywhere.
That being said, Fulham continue to get results, similar to last season when their survival was on
the line; thus keeping up the hopes of countless Americans.
